EB-16 "newbie" question

Hi,

having recently bought an MPC 2000xl, I am now thinking about buying the effect board. The instruction manual is kind of vague about the EB-16's uses; it looks like effect can only be applied to complete prgs but not individual sounds - can this possibly be right? Cause then it would be a waste.
I appreciate any advice! Thanks, Guy

hey whatz up man the eb-16 is a 4 bus effects processor so that means you can assign 4 different setting to whichever pads you want(pads or sound).......the effects feature is hot but very limited.....and it adds about $200 value to your mpc.....you should not have many problems learning to eb-16 good luck.......
